Just like the NFL, whose ratings have gone WAY DOWN, Nike is getting absolutely killed with anger and boycotts. I wonder if they had any idea that it would be this way? As far as the NFL is concerned, I just find it hard to watch, and always will, until they stand for the FLAG!

Kaepernick is the star of Nike’s new “Just Do It” ad, which the former NFL quarterback tweeted and Nike retweeted on Monday. The ad features a close-up photo of Kaepernick with the words “Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.”

The reference to sacrifice most likely links Kaepernick’s going unsigned in the NFL to his kneeling during the national anthem before games to protest police brutality and racial injustice. He began the protest in 2016, and other players have continued it.

Trump weighed in on Nike’s ad for the first time during an interview with the conservative news outlet The Daily Caller on Tuesday, saying it “sends a terrible message.”
